Colonel Sanders

2021年06月20日 | 英単語
Reader's Digest 5月号の記事 'Humor in UNIFORM' からの引用です。

My mom was ex-Army, so during the holidays she and Dad would invite local Marines from Camp Pendleton over for dinner. One night, my sister came home from work at Kentucky Fried Chicken, still in her uniformm. One of the Marines asked where she'd been.

"I've been to visit the colonel," my sister joked.
The Marine looked confused.
"Colonel Sanders!" she explained.
"Sorry, ma'am," he said, "I don't know those higher-ups."
